WHAT ARE THE COVENANTS AND WHY DO I KEEP THEM? MY TESTIMONY

-
           People swear by themselves that they understand the deep things of God. Yet I have witnessed with my own eyes that leaders who claim to be from God, do not keep the one covenant that Jesus said to acknowledge. There are many covenants, like that with Noah, Abraham, David, and Jesus and also ones with Earth, like the rainbow. A covenant is an agreement or promise like that of the new covenant. I believe the church calls it the last supper, in which denominations observe it once a year during Easter or monthly. The last supper and its significance was where the new covenant is established and involves taking communion to acknowledge the covenant. I have attended many churches over the years and out of all the times that i've taken communion with the church, they have only explained that we take communion to remember that Jesus died for us to take away the sins of this world. This is how I know that God has only called a select few to teach people t...

WHY WE MUST KEEP THE LAW? MY TESTIMONY

-
     You can't love God and sin. I could not continue sleeping and living with a man that I was not married to while wanting to serve in the church. When I was growing up, my great-grandmother made sure that all the children learned the law to include the ten commandments by heart and the books of the bible. Every child was able to quote the commandments, know its author and verbalize the scripture. The bible explains that if you train children in the way that they should go, even when they are old they would never depart from it.

WHAT IS SALVATION? THIS IS MY TESTIMONY...

-
         What is salvation? First let me tell you what salvation is not. Salvation is not a public acceptance speech for people to make false claims about believing their eternity is secured based on their life's work. Salvation is not a statement written in the bible that can be altered to fit what you want it to mean. Salvation is a precursor for eternal life. This means that in order to be accepted in the Kingdom of God, one would have to live out salvation through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.      The first mention of the word salvation is not from the New Testament. It is first mentioned in Genesis 49:18 NIV when Israel(Jacob) states that he waited for God's salvation. Another is from Matthew 1:21 and it explains the angel of the Lord speaking to Joseph, who was contemplating on not marrying Mary due to her being pregnant. The angel tells Joseph that the child she is carrying is a male and that he is to name Him Jesus because He will sav...
